And where they didn't notice, a woman was suddenly disappointed.

After speaking, the minister's wife glanced at the people present, and her eyes suddenly fell on Nangong Anshan's face.

The national teacher seems to have turned fourteen years old, and it is the age when he can talk about marriage.

Dugu Huanxu glanced at the queen.

The queen was helpless, and said with a smile: "Lord Jin, your daughter Jin Shengsheng seems to have reached the age of marriage, can the family match her?" ”

Jin Xiantao didn't expect the fire to burn to his side, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "Queen Mother, Weichen's daughter is not married. ”

The queen looked at Jin Shengsheng: "Miss Jin, do you have someone you like?" ”

Jin Shengsheng stood up in a panic and said very nervously: "Thank you for your concern, courtier...... Courtiers ......"

Seeing this, the queen smiled and said: "It turns out that there is someone you like, don't worry, this palace is also young, and it won't let you tell the person you like, let you lose face, you sit down." ”

Jin Shengsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Tong Shuxuan suddenly touched Prime Minister Xiao Cheng.

It's time to get down to business.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng understood what she meant, thought about it, and said: "Niangniang, there are also many ministers' families here today, and it is rare for people to come so much, Weichen has a proposal." ”

The queen said, "Oh? What proposal? The prime minister said. ”

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng said: "There are many unmarried men and women here today, and the strength of a country is closely related to the number of future generations. It's better to be a matchmaker for the queen today, and help them create a condition, maybe there is really a destiny in it. Especially His Royal Highness the Prince, it is also time to choose the queen concubine, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also choose the woman he likes. ”

The queen glanced at the emperor and saw him nodding, so she said: "The prime minister is right, then the palace will order that all men and women over the age of fourteen who have not married or married today should go to the imperial garden." ”

"The palace will provide tokens, the tokens are a pair, will carry out two rounds of selection, one is the woman chooses the token first, and then the man follows the woman to choose, if the man who chooses the same token is the person that the woman likes, then he will accept the token. If the man who chooses the token is someone that the woman does not like, the man puts the token back and asks the other men to choose again. ”

"In the second round, the men who are not in a pair are selected first, and then the women are selected. If you can't choose the person you like in the two rounds, it means that your destined person is not in the palace, and the palace will not be reluctant. ”

All the young men and women of the right age said at the same time: "Yes, Queen Mother." ”

Duguli said: "This method is okay, the queen will prepare." However, it is necessary to pay attention to personal privacy, so that some people with long tongues do not say that others are wishful thinking. ”

"Yes."

Half an hour later, the young men and women arrived at the Imperial Garden, and the queen prepared the tokens.

There are 50 women and men of school age who have arrived today, and there are exactly 25 pairs of tokens.

Nangong Sheng and Nangong Xiu were also in the team, and both of them were also very helpless.

Their family is just ordinary croppers, especially the two of them, unlike Nangong Xian, they also have an official and a half-job.

They are just doing some business at home, and the daughters of those rich and noble families will definitely not look down on them.

They also don't want to embarrass themselves by sticking their hot faces to other people's cold butts.

Nangong Xiu smiled and said, "Second brother, I guess I'm here to make up the numbers." ”

Nangong Sheng said: "Me too." ”

Nangong Xian said: "Don't be too burdened, it's a good thing that someone chooses you, don't worry if it's okay, it can only mean that your marriage has not arrived, and it can't prove anything." ”

The two nodded: "That's right." ”

Soon, all the women began to choose tokens.

In order to protect everyone's privacy and prevent the rejected people from being ridiculed, the queen first asked the palace people to set up twenty-five long tables.

I put all the tokens on the long table.

Let all the men stand aside, let the women start choosing, and then let the men see what token the woman has taken.

If a man likes a woman, he can go to a house not far away and take the same token from that woman.

After the man is chosen, there will be a grandmother who will quietly ask the woman if she likes the man too.

If the woman likes it, then the two can get the queen's marriage.

If the woman doesn't like it, she can wait for the next man who chooses her until someone she likes chooses her token, and if there is no man she likes who chooses her, she can wait for a while to choose a man.

There was also some distance between the long table and the long table, and they whispered inside, so that no one else could hear the sound inside.

From beginning to end, only the woman knew who had chosen her.

The queen also told them in advance that if she didn't like that man, she should not slander him in the future, otherwise she would disobey Yi's decree and would be punished.

Nangong Anshan, like the other women, started to look from the far left.

Although the queen does not necessarily have to give these things to them, it is always right to choose what she likes.

Soon, everyone else was chosen.

Nangong Anshan looked around, but she didn't see what she liked, those tokens were all sachets, jade pendants, hairpins, bracelets and the like, so after everyone had chosen, she went to the edge and chose a white jade pendant.

The palace maid said, "Please turn around." ”

Twenty-five people turned around at the same time so that the men could see what they were holding.

As the crown prince, Dugu Huanxu is of course the first to choose.

Glancing at what they were holding, he went to the next room and took a white jade pendant.

The queen immediately smiled and nodded with Mama Gong.

At this time, all the men and men, and the women and women, were far away from each other, and they all turned their backs to each other, and they were all blocked by screens just in case.

Where the hell Mama went, they couldn't see each other.

Mama Gong quietly came to Nangong Anshan's side and gave her a piece of paper with her name written on it.

If Nangong Anshan likes Dugu Huanxu, she will accept the paper.

Nangong Anshan glanced at Mama Gong, saw her nodding silently, thought about it, and still put the paper away.

Mama Gong suddenly smiled and quickly went back to the queen.

After hearing this, the queen smiled and said, "Ah Xu, this palace knows that Ah Shan also likes you." ”

Dugu Huanxu was also very happy, and said, "Queen Mother, let's hurry up and continue, there are twenty-four people behind." ”

The queen also knew that her son was shy, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

Soon, the others also chose the token as before.

Nangong Xian saw that his sister's token was no longer there, and immediately smiled.

The first choice is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they all know it, it seems that he doesn't have to worry about his sister's marriage.
